Alaris Royalty Corp. Provides a Corporate Update, June 2020

Corporate Update

While the Corporation deemed it prudent to withhold from providing financial guidance for the remainder of 2020 as outlined in the Q1 2020 earnings release, the impact on the Corporation's Partners of the novel coronavirus disease 2019 ("COVID-19") has been less severe than expected to date. Certain Partners continue to work through the re-opening phases instituted in each geographical region with an overall positive recovery from the pandemic so far. As of the date of this release, Alaris has the following updates regarding its Partners and the Corporation's business:

• No additional Partners deferred distributions in the quarter other than those that were anticipated and previously disclosed on May 5, 2020. Total revenue expected for the three months ended June 30, 2020 is approximately $19 million, subject to changes in the exchange rate.
• Body Contour Centers, LLC has now reopened all 30 locations and has been seeing positive results in terms of cash generation and new sales. As a result, we are pleased to report that BCC expects to make its July distribution payment, which is much earlier than management originally forecast. The majority of BCC's key performance indicators for the month of June 2020 are ahead of June 2019. BCC was very successful in rebooking procedures that were booked prior to COVID-19 into the current period, which has led to strong cash flow generation. On top of this, new sales have also been strong and have contributed to the better than expected results. The contracted annual BCC distribution is $9.2 million (US$6.8 million) with a monthly payment of $750 thousand. Management of Alaris and BCC will discuss how and when distributions for April, May and June will be caught up after seeing results over the coming months. BCC currently has no senior debt on its balance sheet.
• As previously disclosed, PF Growth Partners, LLC temporarily closed its 67 locations due to COVID-19. We are pleased to report, that as of the date of this release, approximately 75% of PFGP's clubs are open, including all 19 locations in Tennessee, all 7 locations in Florida, 20 of 30 locations in Maryland and 3 of 7 locations in the State of Washington. PFGP's remaining locations (10 in Maryland, 2 in the District of Columbia and 4 in the state of Washington) are expected to open between June 22^nd and July 12^th and are dependent on reopening plans for individual counties in those States. For the clubs that have been opened for a full billing cycle, cancellations are much lower than forecast while new membership sales are stronger than anticipated, resulting in net new membership growth in clubs that have been open for at least a month. The low cancellation rates coupled with new membership sales speaks to the strength of the Planet Fitness ("PF") brand including the low price point membership offering and superior member experience. With the low operating costs of a PF gym, it is our view that the PF system is weathering the COVID-19 storm much better than several operators in the fitness industry. Thus, we feel PFGP is well positioned to gain market share coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic. The contracted annual PFGP distribution is $13.2 million (US$9.8 million) and we continue to expect the restart of distributions in the second half of 2020. Management of Alaris and PFGP will discuss how deferred distributions will be caught up once regular distributions begin.
• Heritage Restoration Holdings, LLC ("Heritage") has returned to work and its backlog is increasing, a positive response following the mandated shut-down in Boston and the surrounding area that had paused a majority of Heritage's work.
• Federal Resources Supply Company ("FED") were awarded numerous key contracts to supply personal protective equipment ("PPE") such as masks, medical gowns and gloves, to nursing homes throughout the United States. One US$134 million federal contract is to provide more than 40 million pieces of protective equipment to 15,000 nursing homes in just 60 days. The financial impact to FED as a result of assisting with these key contracts to deliver PPE will be significant and is expected to result in a maximum positive reset to the 2021 distributions, which are currently $14 million (US$10.7 million) on an annual basis.
• Kimco Holdings, LLC ("Kimco"), has also continued to see increased work from additional cleaning and sanitization work with their existing customers and through ancillary cleaning services for new customers as a result of the heightened demand for sanitization. Additionally, Kimco expects to soon close an agreement with a new senior lender which will provide flexibility allowing for interest payments to Alaris to be caught up and restarted on a monthly basis.
• The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted other Partners to varying levels, but the majority continue to operate without significant disruption to their respective businesses or distributions to Alaris. Generally, these Partners' performance for year to date 2020 is materially consistent with the same period last year. This demonstrates the "required service" nature of our portfolio and the defensive features of our structure, including large cash flow buffers and low leverage.
• Up to the date of this release the Corporation has repurchased for cancellation 1,156,541 of its common shares at an average price of $8.69 per common share through its Normal Course Issuer Bid. The share repurchases have resulted in a total annualized pre-tax savings of approximately $1.26 million or $0.04 per share.
• Following the June 16, 2020 closing of the Corporation's investment into a new Partner, Carey Electric Contracting, LLC ("Carey"), Alaris' senior credit facility has approximately $168 million available for investment purposes, with a total senior debt to EBITDA on a proforma basis of 1.7x.

Corporate Reorganization

Alaris would also like to announce that it is pursuing a corporate reorganization to convert (the "Conversion") from a corporation to a publicly-traded income trust (the "Trust") and has engaged legal and tax advisors to assist in structuring the Conversion. The Conversion is the foundation of a plan to enhance securityholder value and for continued prudent growth and will help simplify the Corporation's existing cross-border investment structure. Cash flow generated by the business of Alaris will be distributed to Alaris securityholders (as the holders of the units of the Trust) in accordance with a trust distribution policy which is expected to result in after tax cash distribution amounts that are similar to the amounts distributed to common shareholders under the current dividend policy of the Corporation.

The Conversion remains subject to customary conditions, including board, regulatory and shareholder ("Shareholder") approval. The Corporation anticipates calling a special meeting of Shareholders (the "Meeting") to be held in late August 2020 to consider and, if thought fit, approve the Conversion. An information circular and proxy statement ("Circular") detailing the specifics of the Conversion and the Meeting will be mailed to Shareholders in mid to late July 2020. The trust's name will be Alaris Equity Partners Income Trust.

About Alaris:

The Corporation provides alternative financing for a diversified group of private businesses ("Partners") in exchange for royalties or distributions from such Partners, with the principal objective of generating stable and predictable cash flows for dividend payments to Shareholders. Distributions from the Partners are adjusted each year based on the percentage change of a "top line" financial performance measure such as gross margin and same-store sales and rank in priority to the owners' common equity position.
